Holidays in Maspalomas - Gran Canaria, Canary Islands
Perhaps the most scenic of the Canarian archipelago, Gran Canaria boasts a stunning mountainous interior where rugged ravines and gaping gulleys become more fertile and lush with altitude. Winding roads snake up mountainsides to pretty whitewashed villages surrounded by spiky cacti. In contrast, bright and breezy coastal resorts bustle with life and excitement and play host to a superb selection of shops, restaurants and bars as well as long stretches of golden, sandy beaches where you can bask beneath the sub-tropical sun.
Gran Canaria's main tourist areas lie on the island's south coast. Here bays curve and melt into one another forming what seems to be an endless golden beach. The wind-sculpted sand dunes at Maspalomas are almost a mile wide and stretch for as far as the eye can see. The undulating dunes provide numerous quiet spots so you can spend a tranquil day in the sun while children will be in their element in this natural playground.
Located 2 kilometres west of Playa del Inglés, Maspalomas is suitable for quieter, family holidays. The resort is famous for its sweeping sand dunes moulded by winds carrying Saharan sands across the sea from Africa. The dunescapes are peaceful expanses and are particularly pretty at sunset.
Beaches in Maspalomas
A photograph of the Sahara-like sand dunes of Maspalomas is difficult to forget - the sands certainly make a lasting impression. Better still, come and walk through their virtually empty expanses to the sea, and you’ll remember the experience for many damp British summers to come.
Shopping in Maspalomas
Maspalomas has a variety of local shops and little boutiques although the shopping centres around neighbouring Playa del Ingles offer a more comprehensive shopping experience. Alternatively, head up to the island's capital, Las Palmas, which is renowned for its excellent shopping malls and traditional stores.
Maspalomas Nightlife
Maspalomas is much quieter than its vibrant neighbour down the coast, Playa del Inglés, and consists of a myriad of low-rise, whitewashed buildings. Consequently, for a night on the tiles, a short trip down the coast is recommended.
Local Specialities of Maspalomas
Enjoy meal times in the relaxed surroundings of Maspalomas - there are many eateries to choose from. For a change of scene, and even more variety, pop along the coast to nearby Playa del Inglés.
